Enjoy the bird walk from Saturday!!! ----- Original Message ----- From: Maryalyce and Lance To: Reta Stover Sent: Sunday, January 29, 2012 4:13 PM Subject: Audubon Club's Birdwalk of Sat. 1/28/12 report Hi Reta, Frank Schaff led members of our Audubon Club on a delightful walk at Belle Isle State Park yesterday. The weather was beautiful, sunny and not a bit of wind so our count was nice and high for this time of year. We totaled 32 species as follows: American Crow, Northern Flicker, Pileated Woodpecker, Red-bellied Woodpecker, Northern Cardinal, Red-shouldered Hawk, Eastern Bluebird, Northern Mockingbird, Song Sparrow, Mourning Dove, Carolina Wren, Hermit Thrush, Bald Eagle, Canada Goose, Great Blue Heron, Tundra Swan, White-throated Sparrow, Swamp Sparrow, Tufted Titmouse, Yellow-rumped Warbler, Hooded Merganser, Blue Jay, Ring-billed Gull, Lesser Scaup, Bufflehead, Ruddy Duck, Horned Grebe, Turkey Vulture, Horned Lark, Field Sparrow, American Robin and a real special treat, an American Pipit. I am looking forward to our February birdwalk already. I’m sure the nice weather yesterday spoiled us. Happy birding, Maryalyce J. Johnsen
